Fire Emblem: Three Houses – download card confirms file size, future DLC, amiibo, Nintendo Switch Online use
Posted on 4 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Download cards for Nintendo Switch games are essentially physical versions of digital games – they’re vouchers you can buy in stores containing download codes for games. They’re especially popular in Japan and they’re usually available several weeks before the game actually launches, and they often reveal new information about the game via the packaging. This is exactly what’s happened for Fire Emblem: Three Houses, the download cards for which are now showing up in Japanese stores.
First of all, the download card confirms the game’s file size – it will require 11.9 GB of free space. An active Nintendo Switch Online subscription will also be required for some of the game’s online aspects. We don’t have any concrete details on that, but as far as we know from various previews, the game’s only online aspect is telling you what other players chose to do on a specific day in the in-game calendar. Although no new amiibo have been announced so far, past amiibo can be used in some form in the game. Finally, the download card confirms that downloadable content will be available for the game in the future in the form of new missions, paralogues and outfits.

Intelligent Systems announced today that the Japanese main theme for Fire Emblem: Three Houses will be released on CD on August 7 in Japan. We’ve heard the main theme before, but now we know its official name: Hresvelg no Shoujo ~Kaze, Hana, Tsuki, Yuki~ (roughly translated: Girl of Hresvelg ~Wind, Flower, Moon, Snow~, with the last part also being the Japanese name of Three Houses, although read differently as “Fūkasetsugetsu”, which roughly means four seasons). The artist is called Caro, and this will be her debut single. The CD release contains the title theme as well as two songs called “Fallin'” and Always Be Yourself” and will be sold for 1,167 Yen.
There’s also a limited edition release (the cover of which you can see above) that also contains an additional song called “Hresvelg no Shoujo” (without the subtitle) as well as a DVD with two music videos of the main theme (a “Three Houses” version with scenes from the game and a more traditional “Caro” version) as well as a making of video of the recording sessions and an interview with Caro and Takezu Kanazai, a Music Director at Intelligent Systems. This limited edition will cost 1,667 Yen.
As a reminder, here’s clip of the main theme on Youtube:
